I remember what the problem is with mine. My home theatre system had the dvd and receiver in one. That dvd player crapped out, so I got a DVR. Still using the receiver, though. So, in order to have them both plugged in, there aren't enough inputs for the turntable, too. And it's SO inconvenient to get back there and switch things around.

Sarah was close to her music teacher/band leader, so he let her take Pink Floyd's Relics home from the band room. She hasn't returned it yet.

Ugh that sucks! See, that's why I would rather get a record player with it's own speaker than a turntable that has to be plugged in to one.

300 to 400? Holy crap! That's a lot of records! I don't think I even have that many CDs! I have about 3 to 4 records.

Ashley, why won't they give it to you?? I guess they're using it obviously.

My brother is 14 yrs older than me, and I inherited a bunch of his old albums, I have several Beatles original issues from him. Then, I got into music very young, and pretty much from the time I was 7 or 8, I was saving my allowance and buying albums almost weekly. Then when cassettes came out, I hated them, so I bought albums instead, wherever possible.

They're NOT using it, it's just sitting there getting dusty (literally)

And I was really close with my band director to, the guy who won't let me have it is the assistant band director who replaced the director I was close with, the director I was close with would've let me have it in a heartbeat

That's weird, practically the same thing happened with Sarah. The head of the department, who everyone adored, left last summer to take a position at a different school, and while his replacement is okay, he's really young and inexperienced. Sarah spent the first semester of this past year as the head of the music committee, trying to help him learn how to run the department, and organizing things for him. Not sure what's going to happen this year, since she's not coming back. I hope it survives.
